Multiple hypotheses exist regarding the origins and motives of the Norvian people. The most widely accepted point of origin was through the strait between Gondwana and Novaris, possibly starting from the Concordian Ocean with the use of outrigger boats and platform ships. Although their reason for migrating into the Pacific Ocean is unknown, mass migration would remain an important part of their culture following the First Expedition. |

The Norvians were a primarily seafaring ethnolinguistic group who traversed the Pacific and Packilvanian Ocean between 150 BCE and 700 CE, invading and raiding large swathes of territory such as the western coast of Novaris, Eastern Yasteria, and Northwest Aurora. The origin of the Norvian people to this day remains unclear with the most accepted theory being the Concordian Sea through the strait between Gondwana and Novaris. Their expeditions, raids, and settlements across the world had profound effects with those they came in contact with, especially for present day nations such as Axdel, Dallacqua, and Fortuna who all trace their early history to these seafaring people.
Norvian history is generally accepted to start around 300 BCE in the Aspirian Isles when Marenian groups native to the islands began raiding campaigns into Codex Pontus. Their journeys northward brought them to West Novaris around 150 BCE where they eventually conquered and settled the land that is now present day Dallacqua. Entering into the Common Era, the Norvians left behind their holdings in Novaris and turned their attentions south to continue their acts of raiding, eventually pushing into the Packilvanian Ocean. In 247 CE, a major expedition was declared by a confederation of Norvian chiefs to conquer newly discovered land in the south, finally landing on the shores of Aurora. This group would immediately come into conflict with the native population and establish kingdoms on the coast, though they would later be destroyed by the Kormistazic Empire in 642 CE.
The Norvians are distinguished for their seafaring culture, having migrated across large bodies of waters aboard their platform ships.
